ABOUT ME
I'm currently studying in Prague, Czech Republic for a semester but at home I study in Austin, Texas. I love to travel, read, meet new people, and practice my Spanish and Czech. I want to take advantage of my time in Europe and see as many places as possible while still being able to explore my city of Prague (which is a lot harder than I originally thought).
This is a little out of date but I loved my time in Prague so much I'm pretty reluctant to change anything about this but, I'm in Austin again and wanting to show people around meet fellow travelers.
PHILOSOPHY
Yesterday is history
Tomorrow is a mystery
Today is the present, that's why we call it a gift.
So take your time through life, do what you love, and learn as much as possible!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Climbing through the rainforest in Puerto Rico and taking the time to learn how to surf were actually two amazing things I've done in the past. I have a difficult time remembering these things offhand or on the fly but if I'm sitting down and having a conversation things like this pop out somehow!
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach, the ukulele and piano.
I want to learn Italian, French and Portuguese. I also want to improve my Spanish and Czech.
